Default XP, delay opening IE/OE

As title, have XP up to date, virus killer, firewall, checked with the usual ad/spyware checkers etc.

When I open Internet Explorer, sometimes it opens immediately, other times, it takes a few minutes to open, and when it does, all the copies of it you've clicked all open very quickly, yet Firefox will open and can be used.

Outlook express can be the same. It is very annoying.

I don't want to reinstall XP

John,

I'm not seeing minutes, but since the last updates, my IE and OE sometimes start stright away, toher times can take five or six seconds. Bugs me.

Don't know if this is related to your problem though.

Cheers

Ian
